My issues is not getting more than Charlotte my issue I don’t feel either are worth that kinda money. Sasha’s in ring is fine. I don’t particularly find her a great promo and she’s not really a good babyface. Also she walked out of the company last time she was there that doesn’t help in your quest for a big contract. This is all just my opinion which admittedly ain’t worth shit but that’s why I’m on here saying it.
See to me she left and made herself even more marketable. Only reason her hype is down is due to injury. I don't think it hurts at all either because AEW clearly want her, and WWE clearly want her back. She's 100% in the drivers seat from my POV. If I was the most touted women free agent on the market, I would probably set my price high.

I also would mention that companies leaking high prices of an asking free agent is a very common tactic to make themselves look like the ''good guys'' and the free agent look like they are ''being unreasonable''. Not to mention an asking price is never set in stone, it's a negotiation tool.

Finally, I also do not give one single fuck about aew or wwe overpaying people. I always want wrestlers who risk their bodies every match to get every single bit of their worth, so long as they aren't a certifiable pos. And even then, probably still worth it if it means everyone else's pay goes up.

I guess I just don't get worrying about athlete's asking price, it's not my money and these entities are billionaires who don't actually care about people. get that bag

For what? Wrestling 25% of the time the last two years?
yeah that's the thing too. if Charlotte is getting that much for the work she's done then ya they kind of set the bar pretty high for future contracts. I get she's a vet and her price keeps going up but if she's getting paid a stupid amount, that's def WWE's fault for setting that salary precedent.

My only gripe with her is she did walk out but I have no idea what the situation was and I won't act like I haven't walked out of a job before.

I used to be a piece of shit after all.

try to remember the reasons she walked out and that the two people she had issue with have either lost power or have been relieved of duty. It was always about more than just the booking.

idk I see her walking out of the company as a positive myself but I guess it depends on ppl's pov. And I think if she goes back for more money and vince n co are gone, she did kind of win and prove her point :draper2 .

That’s a good point the fuck do I care what they get paid. She’s just not my cup of tea. But I respect your opinion. I just really get a little bent when someone only responds with lol to a non joke post I make…respectfully

Was it ever reported exactly how much Charlotte got?

Can’t say Sasha isn’t “worth it” if we don’t know what “it” is

Although I will agree with the argument that she’s not the best babyface. Although neither is Charlotte.

Is she a Becky level of draw? No. But realistically I don’t think any woman in the business today is.

But she is close to the total package; if not there already.

Since I watch both if she wants to go where she’d be a bigger deal it’s AEW. She’s instantly their top female star. I love Toni infinitely but Mercedes is a tier above her in star power

Nah that's the thing too, if Sasha is really "asking for more" then the only people that could have leaked that are WWE bc only they know what both Charlotte got and Sasha is asking for

But it was reported that Charlotte's was possibly the biggest women's contract in company history, just no numbers
